TruMed® Systems, Makers of AccuVax® Vaccine Management System, Announces Integration with athenahealth’s Marketplace Program to Maximize Vaccine Safety for Patients
AccuVax partners with athenahealth to help eliminate common
vaccination errors
SAN DIEGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–lt;a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/AccuVax?src=hash” target=”_blank”gt;#AccuVaxlt;/agt;–TruMed Systems, Inc., makers of the AccuVax Vaccine Management System,
announced a partnership with athenahealth,
Inc., with the availability of their vaccine EHR integration solution
through athenahealth’s Marketplace program. As part of the athenahealth®
Marketplace, this newly integrated application is now available to
athenahealth’s growing network of 120,000 healthcare providers. This
integration allows the provider’s immunization orders to be
automatically transferred to the AccuVax® system, thereby ensuring that
the prescribed vaccine is always dispensed. This is available nationwide
for practices to download from the athenahealth
Marketplace.
“The AccuVax pharmaceutical-grade refrigerator and freezer guarantees
ideal temperature to protect vaccine integrity for safe and effective
immunizations, and automates many of the non-clinical vaccine tasks
required by our practice,” says Lacy Smith, MD, of Cahaba Medical Care
in Alabama. “AccuVax®’s integration with our athenahealth EHR adds
another layer of time savings as it eliminates the need to select
vaccines from the touchscreen; but the most important benefit is to the
safety of our patients as the integration ensures that the ordered
vaccine is always dispensed.”
Vaccine errors threaten to undermine the protection immunizations
provide and could leave patients inadequately protected against serious
diseases. Two of the most commonly reported vaccine errors are
administering the wrong vaccine or using the wrong dose of a given
vaccine for the patient1. The AccuVax integrated application
for athenahealth eliminates these two errors.

listing on the athenahealth Marketplace.
